The essence and first answer at a glance (60-word summary)

The world after death marks the beginning of a new journey of discovery. As veils are lifted, it becomes easier to know the soul. The knowledge and understanding we cultivate in this life shed greater light on our path to deeper insight in the next. Some people may even come to know the soul while still in this world.

The world after death is the continuation of a creature’s journey toward discovering the realities of existence. In truth, the Hereafter marks the beginning of a new spiritual journey for the human being. Just as people enter the Hereafter with different ranks and stations, so too do they differ in their levels of learning and understanding. In the next world, veils and obstacles are removed, making it easier to know the spirit; yet the knowledge and understanding people cultivate through their actions and efforts in this world illuminate the way to a higher knowledge there.

Indeed, some may be blessed with knowledge of the spirit even in this very world!!!
